Moving to a stronger server. Same host, so DNS will propagate within an hour, but I will be taking the site into maintenance mode so we don't lose any info. If you get the maintenance message, check Twitter; I'll be keeping it updated.

Update: Move accomplished! Welcome to our new home. Smiling

Woot!

Unless your current server's performance has declined, I'll go ahead and assume that a post like this is GOOD news Laughing out loud

sadly

MLM isn't what broke the world. It's a long, complicated, geeky thing involving a web administration tool that was forcing us to use exim, and exim was crashing constantly. MLM readership has been stagnant for a couple of months, hovering between 600-700 unique visitors a day. We did, however, reach our 200th registered user!

Friendly suggestion

heylo madame fabulous writer lady!

Love the story, I have been following for a couple months.
Recently I went away and had no contact to intraweb and then when I came back I couldn't be bothered to sort through the posts to find the story pages to find the last chapter I had read etc. This got me thinking that there should be a sort function or seperate link for the chapters, in order.
I understand why you changed the layout so that people would not skip out on the blog posts (I actually really like the box of squee ones and Viruslife's little competitions) but I think it would be easier for readers if there was some manner of sorting. I'm lost when it comes to web design so I have no idea if you have one and I am missing it or if it is possible to organize them by heading, but I think it would be much more newby friendly that way. Or at least friendlier to those that only catch up once or twice a month and don't come in everyday.

keep up the joy giving Smiling

Hi Ren!

There are many, many, many ways of looking at content here.

--If you want the chapters in order, go here and choose the book you're on.

--If you want to see only the chapters of the book newest first and nothing else, go here.

--If you want to see the latest of everything in a quick list along with how many comments each has (and which you haven't read if you're logged in), go here.

Those are just three choice among dozens of ways of looking at content here.

Thanks for the feedback!

haha thanks for the tips.

haha thanks for the tips. Sorry I am kinda clueless.
I've just caught up and I can't wait to see how Brinnid and Sedra are when they get some time to themselves.
I want to know what Brinnid is thinking when he first(officially) sees Sedra!
Thanks again:D
